    Meanwhile the mind from pleasure less
    Withdraws into its happiness;
    The mind, that ocean where each kind
    Does straight its own resemblance find;
    Yet it creates, transcending these,
    Far other worlds and other seas,
    Annihilating all that’s made
    To a green thought in a green shade,
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    The sea’s vast depths lie open to the fish;
    Wherever the breezes blow the bird may fly;
    So to the brave man every land’s a home.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    The Star that bids the Shepherd fold,
    Now the top of Heav’n doth hold,
    And the gilded Car of Day,
    His glowing Axle doth allay
    In the steep Atlantick stream,
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    When our hatred is too fierce, it places us beneath those we hate.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
